I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of James Madison University in Harrisonburg, VA where I received my Bachelor's degree. During my time in school I had the opportunity to study and complete Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Statistics, and Anatomy&Physiology classes. During that time I provided tutoring sessions locally in Harrisonburg as well as overseas during the summer. I try to make learning these subjects as low stress as possible by implementing the learning strategies recognized in literature (some books include 'Make It Stick', 'Ultralearning', & 'Peak'). The truth is that we all can learn more effectively and with fewer issues by using these particular techniques. What I enjoy most when teaching is to see a student use newfound abilities to be able to complete a problem they work on. My intent is to help students achieve their learning goals while simultaneously developing skills for future classes.

Hobbies

I love just about any outdoor activity and all kinds of sports. That includes hiking, camping, or just walking in my free time. I ran competitively and played on my high school basketball team. Some other favorite sports of mine are tennis, soccer, and volleyball. When the weather is nice here in Norfolk, I am lucky to have the beach very close to home. I am also a dog person at heart and that is probably because I grew up with dogs around me most of my life (sorry cats!).
